They make those instructions as tardproof as it is possible to be. If I lost a fight with an Ikea table, I sure as shit wouldn't be advertising it on Twitter

The problem with fishing for pity is that it makes you look pitiful - which won't put off the Ma'ams, but doesn't work if you're trying to LARP as a big strong man.
The Ikea table saga is fascinating. If there was a defective part, why not complain to Ikea directly (say, on the phone) rather than bitch on Twitter?
If they are so disabled they are wheelchair bound and can't stand up without breaking bones, why are they assembling flatpacks themselves? You can hire someone to do that for you for relatively cheap. If they genuinely can't afford that, why buy it new in the first place? You can find all kinds of cheap Ikea furniture in secondhand groups, because a lot of people don't take it with them when they move house. Or ask a friend for help. Or anything.
This is the table, by the way. Too big to leave unassembled?
Then there's the tweet about not being able to sleep because her patella is "sliding around" where she apparently doesn't consider
maybe bandaging it up to stabilize it.
I can't wait until winter comes and these two gradually freeze to death because they are too busy livetweeting about how cold they are to get up and turn the heater on.
Edit: I think the thing that intrigues me the most is how completely they seem to have given up on the idea of their own agency. There's not even a hint of perception that they might have made better choices. Nothing like "I know, I know, assembling flatpacks is perhaps not a great idea in my physical state, but I just wanted to get started." Not even that! You can still blame something on a defective product (whether it was defective or not) while acknowledging that you also fucked up.
Instead, they are pure victims who are passively acted upon by the forces of Ikea, defective screws, and lack of space to store a 5-inch-high box. How do you get to that point?
